7/13/08

Took this workout for Ross Enamait's Full Throttle Conditioning. This, like Friday's pull-ups, was a lot of push-up volume for me. Did a fair amount of partitioning again and got through. My time leaves room for improvement but it's nice to continue to cross hurdles.

Race to 150

Circuits of 50-40-30-20-10 each
Push-ups
Squats
Sledge Swings
Jumping Jacks

7/12/08

4 circuits
4ea TGU @ 40#
10x Band Hyper extensions
10x Flutter Kicks (4-count)

7/11/08

I found this workout on the Crossfit site. Seemed like a reasonable compensation for not working out yesterday. Three separate workouts done 4 hours apart. Had the day off so it worked out great. My butt was kicked but I enjoyed it.

(1) 21-15-9
95# Thrusters
Pull-Ups

Comment: Big milestone for me to be able to do this sort of pull-up volume. I had to partition quite a bit and should have used a sundial to time this workout but it was still a big hurdle.

Rest 4 hours

(2) Five circuits
5x Dead Lift @ 275#
10x Burpees

Rest 4 hours

(3) Run 1 mile

7/10/08

Nothing. I suck.
